New Wonders Learning Center
Our infant program provides the children with a safe, loving, and nurturing environment based on their unique and ever changing needs. As they grow into toddlers, they continue to quickly develop and become their own individuals. In the toddler program, the children are encouraged to express and share these unique personalities.

Our preschoolers are introduced to a balanced program in which both teacher and student directed learning is done. Our center based classroom layout allows for the preschoolers to explore, be creative, and develop critical thinking skills through the engagement of individualized centers. The pre-kindergarten program is geared towards fully preparing students socially and academically to enter kindergarten.

What once started as a dream for one young girl has turned into an adventure. In 2015, Valarie opened a beautiful child development center with an amazing team at her side. In less than a year they grew the center from 35 children to over 140 children. Even though the center has grown so quickly, the quality, personal care, and attention to each family's needs has always remained the same.
Our teaching staff regularly attend ongoing training and educational seminars to learn new and exciting things which they bring back to the classroom to engage and educate the students and share with their peers. Hi, my name is Valarie Petersen and I am the owner of New Wonders Learning Center. I have been in the childcare field for 15 years and owning a childcare learning enter has always been a dream of mine.
Our programs concentrate on fostering initiative, creativity, and thinking skills through activities which enhance the children's abilities to communicate, solve problems, practice interpersonal social skills, and imagine experiences for themselves with self-confidence. Children are introduced to a balanced program in which both teacher-directed and student-directed learning is done.
The focus of our infant program is to provide the children with a safe, loving, and nurturing environment based on their unique and ever changing needs. As the infants grow, a selected primary caregiver will grow along with them. This will provide the infants and their families with the consistency and trust necessary to help form and foster the emotional bonds crucial for their early development.
As children grow into toddlers, they continue to quickly develop, change, and grow into their own individuals. In our Toddler Program, the children are encouraged to express and share these unique personalities. Weekly lesson plans are created by the toddler teachers to expose and guide the toddlers into learning the skills essential for healthy emotional, physical, and intellectual development.

The 2 women that I dealt with were very unprofessional. After setting a tour to see the facility rose decided to inform a few people, that I didn’t want knowing, where I might be taking my child to for daycare. When asked to speak to a supervisor, Tatiana, states that unfortunately it happens a lot at their facility and that it is Middletown and the staff knows everyone. I most definitely will never take my children to a place that can not keep my privacy to themselves.

New wonders is such a great day care. They have a handy app for billing and teachers notes. You can also check on your child with their wonderful camera system. Most importantly the teacher's truly care about your child. My son has blossomed under new wonders care.

As a Stay at Home Mom it was very hard to allow anyone to watch my Daughter, But I knew that i needed to find her a Pre School. From the first time that I went in to visit i felt at home. The staff is so friendly, and the teachers treat your child as if they are your own. Im so very thankful that i choose this as my Daughters Pre School

We are super picky about where our boys go while we are at work. We drive a good distance (20 miles) from home, it out of our way, to have the boys go to New Wonders Learning Center. Amazing staff. The owner, Valerie and the director, Melissa, go to great lengths to be sure they have only the best in every room (rooms segregated by age). Love it.

The staff were friendly but lacking in teacher skills. Mostly new with little experience. I did notice they were on their phones a lot. The facility itself looked old and somewhat dirty.
